Networks used by United States eSIMs
Each plan connects to the networks listed on its page, so you choose your carrier before you buy. Coverage varies by area: a listed network does not guarantee signal everywhere.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does a USA eSIM also work in Canada and Mexico?
Only if the plan covers them. USA plans work in the United States; North America plans cover the US, Canada and Mexico on one eSIM. The country list on each plan page shows exactly where it works, so pick a regional plan if your trip crosses a border.

When should I install and activate my USA eSIM?
Install it before you fly, on Wi-Fi, by scanning the QR code or in the MobiMatter app. When you land, turn the eSIM line on, set it for mobile data and turn on data roaming for that line. If it doesn't connect, restart your phone and check that the eSIM is selected for mobile data.

Is eSIM available in the US?
Yes. AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile all support eSIM, and iPhone models sold in the US since the iPhone 14 have no SIM tray at all. Travel eSIMs for the US connect to these same networks, so a phone bought elsewhere works as long as it supports eSIM and is unlocked.
Reviewed Oct 6, 2026 · Source
Can I use my UK phone in the USA, or is an eSIM cheaper?
Yes. Your UK phone will work on US networks, but the USA is outside the Europe roaming zone, so most UK plans charge a daily fee or need a pass, and only some higher-tier plans include it. Three, for example, lists £8 per 24 hours there for customers who joined from 18 December 2025, which adds up quickly on a two-week trip. Check what your plan includes in your carrier's app, then compare that with the plans on this page.

Is it worth getting an eSIM for United States?
For most travellers, yes, if your phone supports eSIM. United States plans start at $3.49 for 2 GB, and the longest lasts 365 days, which suits long stays and repeat visits. If your home plan already covers United States at no extra cost, you may not need one.
Which networks do United States eSIMs use?
United States eSIMs on MobiMatter run on Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, and U.S. Cellular; 5G plans are available on Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile. Verizon carries the most plans. Each plan names its network, so you choose your carrier before you buy.
Which eSIM is best for United States?
For United States alone, our top plan right now is 50 GB for 30 days at $39.99 from eSIMGo.

If price per GB is all that matters, the lowest right now is $0.80 per GB, with 25 GB for 30 days.
How much data do I need for a week in United States?
It depends on how you use your phone. Light use (maps, messaging, browsing) takes about 0.5–1 GB a day; scrolling a lot of social video can take 2–3 GB or more. Typical use per hour:
- Instagram Reels, TikTok: 0.3–1 GB

- Voice calls (WhatsApp, FaceTime Audio): 50–70 MB
- Maps and navigation: 2–6 MB
- Messaging and browsing: 50–150 MB

Yes. Unlimited data plans for United States start at $25.99. Many unlimited plans slow down after a daily high-speed allowance, so check the fair-use terms on the plan page before you buy.

Mentions United StatesAwesome service. I have traveled back-and-forth between the United States and the Philippines and this app has not let me down. I strongly suggest that you check your data roaming option so this way you don’t mess up what you need to do.

I bought 6GB for my Paris and Benelux tour. It was more than enough. It worked perfectly everywhere. To activate it, you need to enable the mobile data option.

I have been using MobiMatter for a few years both for travel and to supplement my regular cell plan which has limited data. The service has always been solid and the prices excellent. The installation instructions are easy to follow. On the few occasions that I asked for tech support (mostly for my own errors) the response time has been amazing and the support courteous and effective.

I used it smoothly and quickly in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Spain, and Bulgaria. Sparks connects to the most suitable network for your location at that moment, allowing for convenient use. Depending on your travel plans, annual options are very advantageous because it consumes very little internet data there, unlike in Türkiye.

nice app. I used it during my travel in Spain last year and the internet speed was always good. I didn't have any issues. I now bought a package that covers both Portugal and Spain, as I am going there tomorrow.

I needed an eSIM for EU and non-EU counties for the same trip. They had one package at a great price that worked great in all location. The app was great as I was able to check my data balance, in real time, quickly and easily during my trip. Would definitely use MobiMatters again. Downloading the eSIM was quick and easy too. In addition, when I reached out to Customer Support on a minor account issue, they were very responsive and addressed my issue quickly and effectively.
